When we are on a break at Wareham forest we come to this pub. The new owners have some amazing staff that we as Publicans ourselves would love to employ, such a warm welcome with an amazing smile and definitely mad as a box of frogs, there is no hiding her enthusiasm for the job , a true asset and can sell ice to Eskimo’s as well as quality ales and wine to us. Met the landlord who is also the chef who I must say definitely knows his stuff and also can cook like a demon. I had ribeye which was perfectly cooked with the best onion rings and sauce I have tasted in a very long time. My partner had T-bone steak and was equally impressed. Beautifully cooked meals. Wish them well for the future in their endeavours at The Silent Woman.

After a long journey down for a weekend away with the kids we popped in for a spare of the moment booking. Very accommodating and booked us in before we arrived 15minutes later! We were greeted and shown our table and were made to feel very welcome. We had the Sunday roast beef which was outstanding. As a Sunday roast pro this ranks there in the top 3 I've had. The beef was like butter and the gravy was delicious... would happily sit and dunk potatoes and bread into the gravy all night long. A very good pub wish it was more local to us! Thankyou

We came here for lunch and there really weren’t many varying options. Light bites included brioche rolls and jumbo hot dog - which didn’t seem so light to me! Service was good, although our waitresses couldn’t answer a few of our questions about the menu. Outside area seemed nice. Overall it was okay but I would go somewhere else if you’re looking for more choice.

A very humble and welcoming vintage style pub. The staff are brilliant, and make you feel at home. The pub has these low beams and little tucked away areas to eat, which made me feel very cosy. Dog walkers and muddy feet wanderers welcome. The main meals can be a bit pricey.... But you do get what you pay for. We had food from the lunch/small bites menu, which are actually big portions at around £14 each.

Beautiful food, great service. A lovely homey feel. Staff are very welcoming. Definitely will be visiting again. Great that they welcome muddy paws too! 🐾🤩

Called in at 'The Silent Woman' mid afternoon hoping to get something to eat. There was a wide variety of dishes so my husband opted for beer battered fish and chips, and I had chicken schnitzel, wedges and salad. Both meals were delicious. Unfortunately, we were both so full afterwards we didn't have room for dessert . Nevermind, there most definitely will be a next time. Before I forget, I must say that our waitress was lovely. She was attentive, polite and appeared to enjoy her job. She is a credit to the business.

Can't believe how let down we were!! when phoned up on new years eve were told they weren't open when they told us the night before that they would be and we'd have spent lots of money. Good job we didn't waste our time walking there. Went to wareham kebab instead and had much cheaper and nicer food.

Visited for Sunday lunch, online reservation was simple & easy. We were made to feel welcome from the moment we entered, the service was friendly and efficient. I had the extra large 3 meats roast, it was huge, every thing was lovely. Not the cheapest Sunday lunch that I have had but most definitely one of the best. They also allow dogs. We will definitely be back.
